The Bees traveled to Fremont, Neb. Wednesday evening and held Midland to only 17 total shots on the evening. This stellar defensive performance routed a 14-1 victory for SAU as they improve to (7-4, 2-1).

The first quarter would prove to be few and far in-between goals for both squads. Eli Hahn had a quick start, scoring 20 seconds into the first. This gave the Bees the 1-0 lead. Then, SAU and Midland had a difficult time finding the back of the net as the next nine minutes of play would go scoreless. Until, Midland scored at the 5:33 mark to tie the game 1-1. No other goals would be scored the remainder of the period.

St. Ambrose came alive in the second with five unanswered goals. Once the Bees gained the lead, they would run away with the game. St. Ambrose never haltered and allowed a goal the remainder of the game. Goals in the second came from Zach Priami, Ayden Fraelle, Makaile Shaddix, and two from Matt Cortopassi. This lifted the Bees to a 6-1 lead going into halftime.

The second half was similar to the second period. The Bees continued to find the back of the net while standing tall on defense, not allowing anything easy for Midland.
